    More ET fodder - 30 something millionaire needs advice

    Bro, Keep banging out big money for a few more before you quit your job. You have a lot of years ahead of you. You can live your dreams and trade for a living pretty much any time, so that should at least give you the light at the end of the tunnel to keep you going for a few more years.

    Social Security: How can it ever get exhausted??

    This will have to be one of the solutions. The fact is that people are living longer and longer every year. There is no reason why healthy people NEED to retire when they hit 65. A safety net for retirement, should only be used when you truly NEED it, which for many, could be 70+

    28 million people in the US on Food Stamps

    The bottom 10% in any country is going to be unable to provide any sort of financial well being for themselves and their dependents. At least in this country the poor people have food, shelter, cable tv, transportation, etc. If they don't have those things, it's only due to drug abuse or...

    28 million people in the US on Food Stamps

    I would bet that 75% of those adults smoke an average of a pack of cigarettes each day. That's $300/mo for a 2 adult family.

    So Goes GM

    It seems like they are finally making some improvements in styling and fuel efficiency. I hope they can get their act together, but I fear the unions have already nailed this coffin shut.

    Bush Administration Proposes Most Sweeping Overhaul of Financial Regulation Since Dep

    I do believe overall that Bush means well, but everything that he has done, he has basically f*cked up. Many of his appointments have been rediculous. The Iraq War, whether we should have been there in the first place, has been mismanaged completely. Immigration. The list goes on and on...

    Obama wants to raise cap gains 75%

    No. If you have not figured out by now that the best way to a better lifestyle for ALL Americans is through lower taxes and more importantly much lower government control and spending, than it is you who is ignorant.

    Obama wants to raise cap gains 75%

    I Wish Paulson Would Drop Dead

    Yes, but you have to consider the alternative. Most likely, in my opinion, Bush was the lesser of two evils. I really can't imagine Gore as President. Kerry maybe, but Gore would be off in fantasy land talking about global warming every second of every day.

    Why many economists fall victims of scams?

    Maybe because they are schooled in the "theory" of economics, which don't always play out correctly on a micro basis.

    Secretary Paulson directs US Treasury to sell Fort Knox gold for FED cash!!

    Maybe Paulson knows something about the future direction of the US dollar, and therefore the price of gold. Might as well sell at the high, if he thinks it's going down.

    Paulson: Stimulus plan could create 500,000-600,000 jobs

    You're missing the point. The stimulus plan is all about the appearance of "helping" out the people. It's to buy votes, or at least not lose votes since both parties backed it.
